WE NURTURE CHILDREN’S DREAMS

Gillibrand children aspire to leave a legacy in the world and make a difference to others. They push the boundaries of what is possible to be the best they can be. They are encouraged to explore their passions and interests. They embrace opportunities to follow their dreams with confidence and self belief. They are courageous and persevere to fulfil their potential.

Headteacher's Welcome

Gillibrand is a unique and inclusive school that prides itself on providing a home-from-home nurturing environment. We create a culture where children learn to respect difference and diversity, not just through our personalised curriculum, but through the daily life of our school.

We are committed to giving every child the very best opportunities, regardless of their background, race, gender, disability, or beliefs.

We strive for:

high standards from everyone involved in the school;

high status for every person as an individual 

high expectations of every one as they strive to be the best they can be

At Gillibrand Primary School we encourage our children to be happy, to be confident and to believe that they can succeed.
